YouTube Analytics

A research-heavy skill for evaluating YouTube channels, recent uploads, and topic opportunities using the YouTube Data API.

Overview

This skill helps an agent inspect channel-level metrics, recent uploads, and video-by-video performance without falling back to vague creator advice.

It is built around concrete API calls, practical benchmarks, and a repeatable analysis flow for finding what is working, what is underperforming, and where new content gaps exist.

Best For

Channel health checks and performance reviews
Comparing your channel against other developer channels
Spotting content gaps and keyword opportunities
Reviewing title, description, and tag quality

What You Get

Channel overviews with actionable metrics
Top-performer breakdowns and recurring patterns
SEO observations tied to public YouTube data

Example Usage

Audit my YouTube channel @nltech1 and tell me which topics are outperforming the rest of the last 25 uploads.

Compare @nltech1 against @ThePrimeTimeagen and @Fireship on upload frequency, average views per video, and recent momentum.

How to Install

Use in Claude Code

Each skill archive now includes a dedicated Claude Code installer that creates a user-level subagent plus any companion files the skill needs.

Download the skill archive and extract it so the skill folder still contains `SKILL.md` and the four installer scripts.
Run `install-claude-mac-linux.sh` on macOS/Linux or `install-claude-windows.ps1` on Windows from inside the extracted skill folder.
Restart Claude Code or start a new session so the installed subagent is available.

# macOS / Linux
./install-claude-mac-linux.sh

# Windows PowerShell
pwsh -File .\install-claude-windows.ps1

The Claude installers target the user-level subagent directory and also install a companion folder when the skill needs scripts, examples, or other supporting files.
